The top communications official at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) accused career government scientists of plotting against President Trump and told Trump supporters to arm themselves ahead of the November presidential election.
In a Facebook Live video on Sunday, HHS Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Michael Caputo said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was harboring a “resistance unit" to Trump, The New York Times reported.
The career scientists "haven’t gotten out of their sweatpants except for meetings at coffee shops” to plot “how they’re going to attack Donald Trump,” Caputo said, according to the Times. “There are scientists who work for this government who do not want America to get well, not until after Joe Biden is president.”

Excellent advice. But most of us are waaaaay ahead of ya.
I luv it!
Lol...in the article he says to buy ammo before it’s all gone...obviously he hasn’t shopped for ammo lately :)
“If you carry guns, buy ammunition, ladies and gentlemen, because it’s going to be hard to get.”
He doesn’t seem to be calling for violence or even calling to prepare for it. He’s just warning of a supply shortage.
The main takeaway for me - he is saying there will be armed insurrection from the Left targeting what they perceive as an actual enemy to their socialist utopia.
Have firearm will travel -
Yes ammo is short - I landed all mine in DEC 2019 because I saw this coming... Anyone trying to pick it up now is going to have a problem... the unseen forces of leftism is on the march — these cities have been nothing other than a training ground for mass national chaos come NOV 4th 2020.
The media will aid it — and the Democrats will attempt to stall any action prior to losing full control come JAN 2021.
Merry Christmas 2020 — it’s going to be one to remember!
If the media aids it they will deserve to have the same visited upon them.
I did a little bit of a dive into the current ammo shortage.
The root cause seems to be a lack of primers. Part of this is due to manufacturing shutdowns and part of it is due to the primer manufacturers set up to produce to average demand. Between the downturn in production and the upturn in demand, there simply aren’t enough primers in the pipeline and no spare production capacity to catch up. I’ve read upwords of 90% of available primers from the four domestic primer manufacturers (IIRC, Remington, Winchester, CCI and Federal) are going to ammo manufacturers but it’s a trickle compared to normal supply and there’s practically nothing left for reloaders.
Apparently, and I don’t know how true this is, there were plenty of primers overseas and many are on their way via ship (see https://www.gunsandammo.com/editorial/great-primer-shortage-2020/383204). There are several primer manufactures outside the U.S. including Fiocchi, Armscor, JSC and Sellier & Bellot.
Anecdotally, I’ve found that not only are primers fairly impossible to obtain (especially large rifle), but the little Lee Loader kits are unavailable in certain calibers (30-30 is the one I was looking for essentially without success).
Also, due to copper shortages, it’s very difficult to find copper-clad 22lr ammo although lead versions are not too bad.
I picked a heckuva time to try to get into reloading for the first time...
If you haven’y already stocked up on ammo, it’s too late now, the shelves are empty.
SGAmmo.com : Due to extremely high demand and very limited supply we are very short on inventory at this time....
Seems about right ... My stores were stocked DEC 2019!... I saw the writing on the wall coming out of China... this is enviable
They had plenty of my preferred slugs, but I don't need anymore of those.
